Lexx’s world lost all detail, fixating on Chel. Her golden orange hair was floating freely around her shoulders and her blue dress faded into nothingness. “You have love.” He stood before her, reaching out as he so wanted to in real life. Reaching out, because he felt this was all he had and just being with her made him feel as though he needed nothing else in life.
“You have hope.” Hope? He would see her again and maybe, he would do exactly what he was dreaming. Who cares who was there. Who cares who saw. The moment was all he wanted. He touched the side of her face, brushing her hair aside and sliding his fingers down over her soft cheek until they were just beneath her chin.
He tilted her chin up and leaned forward, his arms sliding around her to draw her near in a passionate embrace. “Nobody can truly take that from you, but you can lose it all if you give up.” Words continued echoing around him, but he paid no attention to them. He had Chel. That’s all he wanted.
